Impact of color neutrality.

[RyanReese09]

Bad title thread, but whatever.

Rowe and faz are both color neutral and have the fastest official singles in the world. Do you think anyone is going to switch/attempt to switch to color neutrality in light of this? I'm personally not but I could imagine many people trying the switch

The color neutral surge ended last week. It won't be back for another few weeks.

I was actually thinking of this, but I think there are more important things to be worked on instead of saving a few moves on the cross.

 

[Zyrb]

Actually for me, yes. I have been thinking of going CN for a while now, and today's events pushed me to finally start practising it.

The benefits of being CN are far more than just "saving a few moves on the cross."

it gives you a more solid flow into f2l since you can track peices easier

yeah i saw your sig change to that, i assumeed it was because of the wrs

edit-what anthony said

I want to, but it drives me bonkers!

 

[Zyrb]

hopefully, it will all pay off. but i want to see what other people think

Push through man! It only hurts for a second. After that you can't realise why you'd want to stay with one color.

I think that where I'm averaging (around 16 to 17) there's more important things to work on.
Although once I get to maybe sub 14 or 15, I'll consider it.

i want to try it too, or rather i did, but didn't like it alot . i was cn wit beginners but badmephisto changed me.
i wanted easier cross, but i decided yellow/white was enough (f2l and LL are almost the same). my yellow is like a second slower on average but that's because I dont use it too much. a hard yellow case + harder white case = white wins. yellow has to be some what easy for me to do it (or white horrible)

 

[Zyrb]

I think of it as a new challenge, its a great feeling when you think I CAN do this.

How can you track the pieces easier. I'm just curious

 

[Zyrb]

I would assume, because you know cross, F2L, PLL and OLL with all pieces you are more familiar with them

 

[rock1313]

wait is this colour netral or not colour netral he was talking about

 

[Zyrb]

he saying being CN is more than just an easier cross, it helps easier f2l flow

so before today, CN was pointless? Thats a pretty dumb reason to think its fast.

for the record, faz and rowe aren't the only reason I'm going CN. that would be pointless

 

[DavidWoner]

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that they both turn super fast and know a lot about cubing.

An easier cross means you can look further into f2l during inspection...and erik got his wr single by spotting the first pair during inspection. Pll skip helped though...

(yes I know he's not CN)
